Going low carb is a great and quick way to lose weight; so much of what we consume (and often enjoy a little too much of) is high in carbs, usually refined carbs, which quickly turn to sugar upon digestion. Changing your diet to be more low carb takes a healthy dose of discipline, as you’ll notice many foods we crave are high in carbs.
